it occured to me the other day that i have no idea where most of the products i use come from, what they're made out of, and what effect they have on local/international economies.
so this is about consumerism.

think before you review

Nobody can be seen in this flash as simply good or evil. Both factions, whether it is the surface dwellers or the underworlders, are ambiguous in their motives. While the underworlders can be seen as evil for taking an innocent child as prisoner to be executed, they are merely trying to avenge those of their race that have been turned into balls by the surface dwellers. This can be seen in today's world through terrorism, and what you get from this flash really depends on how you look at terrorism. Most will outright condemn it, but you really need to look at the whole picture first. You cannot outright condemn the underworlders for their actions, as they were provoked by the surface dwellers.

I thought it said it was about &quot;Comunism&quot; at first

...So I didn't get it untill I re-read the description >_<. I'm not too fond of the doodle-style of the movie, but I really enjoyed the overall plot and presentation of the peice. Also, the lack of sound effects, while most likely an artistic choice, left the movie feeling a little empty (for lack of a better word).

Another part I liked was when the Mushroom-shaped-kid was following the Blue-kid as he searched for the ball, I thought you did a nice job of building tension there.

simplistic style with open ideals

at first the art looks badlydrawn, but you can tells its good by the smooth flow and direct choice of colours. I don't understand whats so bad about the idea of this movie. I'll reword things to how they are know so even a moron could understand. Sally and Jim were playing ball, they lost the ball, the alligators went to eat jim (there not allilgators but from a reality perspective they are) jim gets saved by the men. The alligators get turned into more balls. :D its human nature, we destroy that which threatens us, and use that which is accessible. Unless your some stupid Vegan you've come to accept things that way as how things are. we're only slightly different from the creatures, (colour) but thats what makes us, humans.
